Standing on the rocks
Wintergray storm approaching,
I beseech my God.

Reno, Nevada – Monday, 26 March 2012
In Winter I know
Hope stays buried in cold wind:
But daffodils bud.
Depression
Blackness visits now,
Far too familiar to leave –
Hated companion!
Five Days until
Waiting to exhale
Because it’s harder to breathe
When turning fifty.
See Only Love
Heart held in her hand
With the moon to guide her light:
Angel’s message home.
Dark Night
Feeling comforted
By the sharp silver grasped close,
Finally able to sleep.
In the Eagle’s Lair
Sparrow year by year
Works to build a better world.
One day she just stops.
Mors, Mortis
When she tried it last
And asked for mom to visit,
Three long years went by.
Therapy
He told her that it’s
Like death when it happens.
She’d like to scream, can’t.
Unknown
Alone in her room
Determining the question:
Will she reach fifty?
